A low-tech declaration - Thursday morning

[veepofchess]

[Tacked on the inside entry doors of both dorm buildings for both schools. Typed, with what some might recognize as the flag of the Black Knights behind the words.]

Prisoners of Rakuen:

I am Zero. Some of you may know me, and would ally yourselves with me. Others would seek me out and have me unmasked. What I bring to you today, however, is unity. There is one unalienable truth that unites us all in ways we need only open our eyes to see.

That one truth is that we are all united in is that we are all prisoners of the Rakuen system. We are all forced to fight our friends, family, and loved ones, to unknown ends. We are all marionettes on the strings of a faceless puppeteer that uses his power over others to enslave them and force them to do his bidding.

But this has not always been the case. There are whispers about how the last session of this game ended. Freedom is possible for those that would stand and take it for themselves. The Prefects, the Headmistresses, and indeed, even the Mayor herself are all merely cogs in this machine.

And this machine is one I will tear down piece by piece and gear by gear until nothing remains. None will be left behind, and none that oppose me will find mercy. If you would join me, seek me out. If you would oppose me, then you endeavor to continue your own incarceration.

Even if he showed himself... he wears a mask so that no one knows who he is.

[imperceptible]

[A mask?] ... does he wear a cape too?

[swordofzero]

[Suzaku nodded] He wears a cloak, and leads a group called the Black Knights, fighting against the empire.

[imperceptible]

... and you're sure he's not a superhero? [Because seriously. B|]

[swordofzero]

Perfectly. He's a terrorist. [Suzaku frowns because something about all of this is giving him a headache.]

[imperceptible]

Weird. I think this is the first terrorist I've ever heard of that wears a costume.

[swordofzero]

[Suzaku nodded] He is unusual for our world as well, but he relies on dramatics to cause fear and confusion.

[imperceptible]

[Kevin pauses, then says after a moment of thought:] Wouldn't the cape get stuck in doors?

[swordofzero]

[Blink] So far it hasn't... [What a question Kevin...]

[imperceptible]

[Well it's a valid point.]

Bet it does and nobody's caught him yet.

[swordofzero]

[More blinking] Perhaps...
